Marcela Sapone, 29

CEO and Cofounder, Hello Alfred

This former McKinsey consultant wants to help get our lives in order with Hello Alfred, a tech-savvy butler service priced for common folk. For $32 a week, an “Alfred” will organize your Batcave and manage on-demand services like Handy and Instacart to keep the kitchen sparkling, hamper empty and refrigerator stocked. “We want you to spend your time on the things that really are meaningful to you,” says Sapone, who founded Alfred in 2014 with fellow Harvard Business School alum Jessica Beck. Hello Alfred now operates in Boston and NYC, and has raised $12.5 million from VCs like NEA, Spark Capital and Sherpa Capital. In 2014 Sapone and Beck were the first women to win the coveted TechCrunch Disrupt SF startup competition on the main stage. “Women start businesses that seem cute on the surface, but that's when you should be really afraid. What we're doing is really meaningful and is going to change how people live.”
